More of the same at Hullabaloo.

Non-government by a senile 80-yr. old who was born human garbage, a bunch of brain-dead twenty-nothing anti-social media "influencers", a delusional fuckhead who thinks some fairy in the sky is talking to him (Item below.) & the lawless, post-Constitutional Supreme Court. Now you'll get it, good & hard.

Is this shithole nation just screwed, or poked in the poop-chute forever?

Republicans = Nazis

"Moses" & his fellow Jesus-loving vermin pray for your death.

House Speaker Mike Johnson says he grows more confident "with each passing day" that the GOP will retain control of Congress. Why? "This is a God thing. We have intercessory prayers who are on the ground at the Capitol praying."

"We"? Is the House paying for this praying?

They lie to themselves & they lie to you, every day of the wk. & twice on Sunday. String up the theocrats before they send you to the MAGA Inquisition!!

Hot Rails To Hell ...

Spent almost an hr. post-shooting fiddling w/ sectional & flex-track before suspending operations. But one line is almost going & I've proved w/ geometric logic it won't need added feeds.

Other modeling stuff:

Also, at some point you need to decide if you are content being a casual recreationalist or if you want to move to the next level. It’s your call. No judgement. That said, if you want to move forward, you need to get out of your comfort zone, buy that sixty-buck airbrush, and get comfortable with it.

Easy, Lance. Sounds a bit judgemental to me who, picky as I am, fully intend to remain in my "casual recreationalist comfort zone". No desire to obtain an air-brush, but I did click the "sixty-buck airbrush" link out of curiosity, to find it's a) Amazon; b) $199.99, not any "sixty bucks". Ha!

Don't have the space, don't need the noise.

I'll stick w/ washes & powders; my primary interest in weathering is eliminating gloss & shine on rolling stock, not creating1:87 works of art. Avoided a soldering iron so far too, but if the track continues its recalcitrance ...

Currently 58% humidity, 86°F (30°C). Don't make me no never mind. Haven't broken a sweat or broken out the fan yet. If you can't take the heat ...

Saturday Savings Spectacular!

Going to the corner for milk yesterday I spotted Xmas lights in a cardboard box & decided I could use the wire if nothing else. Well, they work & are battery-powered, so don't waste your money on Woodland Scenics JustPlug® or Dioramo® lighting systems.

My curiosity piqued, I checked battery-powered wired LEDs & found piles, some powered by AAs, some by D cells, & some by hearing aid batts. Turns out the above suckers are made by Greenbrier International, Inc., a subsidiary of Dollar Tree. (Or it's Dollar Tree's parent co. Fucking robots.) All plastic; the only metal is the wiring & whatever's in the battery pack. The biggest deal to me is the self-containment. Everything's in the structure, no connecting to an external power source, so no wall-warts, extension cords or added LED wiring are needed.

This looks as if six bldgs. could be illuminated for $40.00. W/ 30 lights per string, six huge industries could be lit, or a small structure could be overdone until it caught fire.

Hoo boy, now Woodland Scenics is offering this; the video came out two months ago, but the system can't be searched on their crummy site; you have to look in the "Coming Soon" area. No prices yet, but an arm & a leg should cover it fairly easily. Speakers, sound cards & readers &c. will be just a smidge more than a transformer, control box & LEDs. Might not be easily duplicated at a bargain store.P.S.: If you do want the tried & true, I compared the Just Plug® & Dioramo® MSRPs sometime last yr.; Dioramo was a bit less expensive & their system seems more open to using non-Dioramo LEDs & the like. Or, Dwarvin & their fiber-optic "no wires" system. Tain't cheap neither.

Fat Donnie From Queens Calls In W/ His Hot Takes On Sport

Repugnant. Ass-kissing billionaire owner scum. Shove it, Mark Walter!Fat Donnie knows nothing. He's just reading from the teleprompter.

Reading from prepared remarks honoring the Dodgers' title defense, Trump rattled off a string of stats — the team's Tokyo season opener, a record-breaking travel schedule, and a historic 229-day season — before admitting he had no idea what any of it actually meant.

"I don't know," he said. "That's a different kind of a fact mark than I ever heard of, but that's what they give me to read. So what can I tell you?"

"220 the longest season ever," he added. "I don't know what the hell that means."

Nor could he figure it out. Thought he was smart, played baseball at the military academy where he was shipped & could have been a major league prospect. What a lying sack of shit. This reporter has no idea what the hell "fact mark" means either. How stupid can a life form be?

Funny how no one ever refutes this or similar statements. Can't handle the truth, can you, grain-dead idiots?

Doesnt Know Anything

Can't stop his fat ignernt mouth, either. Ohtani has barely played the outfield,

Shohei Ohtani has played the outfield, but only sparingly in the major leagues. He made 7 brief defensive appearances in the outfield (6 in right field, 1 in left field) during the 2021 season with the Los Angeles Angels, totaling about 8 1/3 innings without recording a putout.

Earlier in his professional career in Japan with the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters, he played the outfield much more frequently, logging 64 total games across left and right field before shifting to strictly pitching and designated hitting.

but Lumpy has to make him the best outfielder ever. Fat Gay Don likes Ass. Football or greased-up, almost-naked furrin men hugging & hitting each other, so he doesn't know a damn thing about American sports. I hope he hasn't cursed the former Bums of Brooklyn w/ his ignorance. At least he'll probably be too scared to come to L.A. for home games during the Series.

History Lessons: Same Idiotic Shit, Different Day

Unpopular Front on the "Little Red Scare 2.0"

To the New Right, this abolition was unilateral disarmament in the still-frosty Cold War—and it removed a valuable cudgel against the domestic left. The Heritage Foundation’s Mandate for Leadership transition plan called to “revive the committees"“ and to rebuild of the internal security apparatus to battle domestic subversion, warning that clergymen, students, businessmen, entertainers, labor officials, journalists and government workers may engage in subversive activity "without being fully aware of the extent, purpose or control of their activities," and that individual liberties are "secondary to the requirement of national security and internal civil order.” The author of this section was one Samuel T. Francis, whothe would go on to be a staffer for [Sen.] John East.

The absolute joke that is fear of "Sharia law" is revealed by (non-) reaction to the Saud family's investment in the creation of the Paramount/WB/Discovery media cartel. All lies & hypocrisy.

These stupid jerks are trying to scare the chumps about Cuba. Yes, Cuba, giant, powerful Commie island to the south, & its "influence" & "infiltration".Here we come, capitalist pigs!

Also on the subject, from The Rude Pundit.

Rubio is promising that the administration is going to be naming more groups as "terrorist organizations" and going after their funding, which they claim comes from foreign governments. The ideological criteria is broad: "This is what radical leftism is.  It may wear various different slogans and ideologies across place and time.  They can call themselves anti-capitalist or anti-imperialist or communist or anarchist or Marxist." Except it's not illegal to believe any of those things. You can be a communist in the United States. It's allowed. Or it used to be.

And the net is going to get wider and wider and "communist" is going to mean "wants health care for everyone," and this effort is going to work hand-in-hand with the voter suppression efforts, one being used as an excuse for the enforcement of the other. Rubio teed it all up: the coming pretext to destroy everyone on the left.

Top Ten All-American Hellhole States

These are America’s 10 worst states to live in for 2026

States of the former Confederacy, plus Oklahoma, Utah (not a state then) & Indiana; somewhat surprising until I remembered it was a Klan hotspot in the 1920s.

The Ku Klux Klan held immense political and social power in Indiana during the 1920s, with an estimated 300,000 members—representing roughly a third of the state's native-born white male population.

Guessing all these hellholes have Republicans as Goobernators & legislatures dominated by idiotic right-wingers.

And the biggest loser is:

America’s Worst Place to Live in 2026: Tennessee

And I'd heard so much about Nashville being a "hot", burgeoning cultural center, like Branson, MO but w/ less Jesus. Great for crackers, sure.

Tennessee Republicans, led by Gov. Bill Lee, make no apologies for a rash of state laws targeting the LGBTQ+ community, including a so-called “bathroom law” requiring transgender people to use the facilities designated for their sex at birth. The state also explicitly bars localities from adopting their own antidiscrimination ordinances. To underscore the point, Lee signed a resolution earlier this year designating June “Nuclear Family Month.”

“The nuclear family, consisting of one husband, one wife, and any biological, adopted, or fostered children, is God’s design for familial structure and has been the bedrock of society since the creation of the world,” the resolution states.

Its sponsors deliberately timed the observance to coincide with the month when Tennessee’s more than 300,000 LGBTQ+ people celebrate Pride.

Inclusiveness isn’t the only area where the Volunteer State falls short. Tennessee also has one of the highest violent crime rates in the nation, according to FBI statistics. And it has the third-highest rate of drug deaths, according to the United Health Foundation.

Who'd a thunk CNBC would be full of low-T lib sissies who are so concerned about the pervs?

All violent language & name-calling: "Wrecks". "Brutal". "Moron". That certainly refutes her point, other than it being true.

Un-democratic institutions like the Senate & Supreme Court that are "key" to keeping Whitey, the aristocrats & other scum in power should absolutely be abolished, & the sooner the better. That puts their undies in the proverbial twist, & it's why anything that keeps Democrats out of office will be legitimate in their eyes. Are you scared yet?

"Low-T": EAIAC

Sky Dancing has more on testosterone obsession, about half-way down the page. These people are ignernt & crazy.

Some physicians and researchers questioned the move and said some of Hegseth’s statements on testosterone Wednesday were not backed by research. Testosterone levels vary naturally over time, and it is unusual to screen patients for low testosterone unless there are symptoms, they said.

“This is non-evidence-based and could cause harm,” said Adriane Fugh-Berman, a professor in the department of pharmacology and physiology at Georgetown University.

Pin-dicked closet cases, every one.

The framing fits neatly within a growing trend of hormonal obsession on the right. Over the past several years, in corners of the internet, media, and politics devoted to an exacting vision of masculine supremacy, testosterone has become a substance of mythical importance. Calling a political opponent or message-board adversary “low-T” is the new “soy boy,” “beta,” or “gay.” Right-wing influencers are touting dubious pills that promise to increase testosterone production for more energy, bigger muscles, and better boners. The Trump administration is bragging that the president has the highest T level Dr. Oz has ever seen in a man over 70.

All this is befitting of a political movement that wants to eliminate gender-affirming medical care and gets its health advice from the supplement ads on Tucker Carlson’s podcast. In the eyes of Hegseth and his peers, testosterone isn’t just a sex hormone present in most human beings or a potential gauge of underlying health issues. It’s a magic manly potion, an indisputable indicator of sexual power, a tool for turning matcha-swilling weaklings into musclebound superheroes incapable of expressing any emotion but rage.

Funny, I doubt if there's any testeosterone left in my wretched body, but I can assure you I am a blue-hot ball of screaming rage!

More Music To Lay Track By, More Often

Telling The Truth

From The Hill, via Attention To The Unseen. This may raise a stink among certain elements. The truth hurts.

House Democrat: Hegseth testosterone screenings indicative of ‘homoeroticism’

The New England Democrat added that the Defense chief is the “embodiment” of the style of hypermasculine, homoerotic art drawn by Finnish artist Touko Valio Laaksonen, better known as Tom of Finland.

“So I feel like they must be looking at that [Tom of Finland’s art] as like their example for what men look like,” Balint said.

No, really? Could explain why none of them like girls. One might even wonder if this were a peculiar & pathetic means of trying to get women out of the military.

The actual testosterone story, as opposed to what these simpletons believe it to be. Essentially, a pointless exercise for most.
